BXBX NOVEL Chapter 219 Meeting, Confrontation
After ten o'clock, the bell rang again.
Wang Ye stood up and slowly walked toward the door.
He didn't intend to abandon his duty, but he couldn't bear to remain here any longer.
Yesterday, Wang Ye knew that this was the time for his students' morning exercises.
The students all rushed outside.
Wang Ye didn't want to stand in this corner, attracting their curious gazes like a sideshow.
He decided to move further away and wait for them to finish their exercises before approaching.
They headed straight to the school's small department store.
"Boss, how much is this?"
After purchasing a bottle of drink, Wang Ye took a sip and observed the students engaged in their exercises outside the convenience store.
The management of the technical school was remarkably lenient.
There was a group of students, both male and female, smoking and snacking beside Wang Ye.
Although it was supposed to be a group activity, the students eventually sauntered away without participating.
Naturally, Wang Ye wasn't a teacher, nor was he their parent, so he couldn't be bothered to intervene in their affairs.
While some of them eyed Wang Ye, the unfamiliar lone wolf, no one dared to approach him and stir trouble.
At this moment, Wang Ye didn't know that someone had come to the spot where he had been previously.
He didn't enter the small field, but he was under a scenic tree in the corner.
Deng Hai also knew some things about this school.
He knew that the students had to do exercises between classes. In his impression, Jiang Ting was still a pure and obedient girl. Other than when he came, she was in class the rest of the time.
He had initially intended to wait downstairs in the dormitory, but upon hearing the bell, he rose and made his way over.
As expected, amidst the crowd, he spotted the figure he had been longing for day and night.
She remained as stunning and pure as his memories...
In this moment, Deng Hai's eyes softened briefly. Yet, that tenderness was short-lived, replaced by tightly clenched fists.
He couldn't help but recall what she had said to him over the phone.
"Let's break up!
No specific reason. Just that two years is too long. I won't be able to see you for two years. I'm afraid I'll forget how you look by then, and I can't bear it. Let's break up."
Those were her exact words from that day.
After uttering those words, she hung up, and her phone went off, unreachable.
It was those words that had driven Deng Hai to madness, fueling his decision to become a deserter.
In this moment, Deng Hai actually felt the urge to rush forward.
He wanted to confront Jiang Ting head-on and demand answers.
"I enlisted in the army for you, and you claim you can't wait for me. What does this mean?"
He needed an explanation.
Even more than that, he needed Jiang Ting to clarify her stance. For this, he didn't hesitate to become a deserter.
However, the field was crowded, and he hesitated.
He wondered if Jiang Ting truly meant what she had said. Perhaps, after he had joined the army, she feared not seeing him for two years and wanted to break up, yet still harbored love for him deep inside.
Thus, he didn't want to take things too far at this moment.
Little did he know that the cherished pure woman in his heart, his goddess, had been romantically involved with the military training instructor last year.
Before he had joined the army, she had been engaged in a flirtation with someone else. Later on, they had even confirmed their relationship. The night before, they had spent the night together in a small hotel...
After the class exercise concluded, the small group of students scattered in different directions.
Some returned to the teaching building, others hurried to the dormitory, a few made their way toward the exit, and, of course, some headed for the small shop.
Wang Ye, on the other hand, went against the current, intending to return to his previous spot.
He had noticed Jiang Ting heading towards the teaching building.
In these past few days, this woman had been unusually cautious.
Perhaps she genuinely feared Deng Hai's unexpected appearance, and even more so, she dreaded his reaction when he discovered the truth.
As a result, she never let Wang Ye out of her sight.
Even during the exercises. She had always kept an eye on him.
However, from his previous vantage point, Wang Ye couldn't see the small shop, and thus, Deng Hai remained unnoticed by him.
Naturally, Wang Ye remained oblivious to Deng Hai's presence.
As the students made their way towards the teaching building, Deng Hai trailed along.
He was determined to go straight to the classroom, find Jiang Ting, and finally address the questions he had been suppressing.
Unbeknownst to Deng Hai, someone had taken notice of him.
Wang Ye spotted him as he crossed the small field.
Wearing a hat might not have been particularly conspicuous, but it was already past ten o'clock, and the sun had begun to heat things up.
Wearing a mask at this hour was what had undoubtedly drew attention.
It was 2010, and mask-wearing wasn't a prevalent practice.
Wang Ye didn't want to attract unnecessary attention, but he also didn't want to wear a mask, as it would make him stand out even more.
Naturally, Wang Ye was particularly vigilant, being a military man himself. He paid close attention to anyone who appeared suspicious.
Furthermore, this individual's height and build bore a resemblance to Deng Hai's.
Wang Ye's eyes immediately narrowed.
Could it be him?
Wang Ye wasn't entirely certain.
However, in the next moment, all doubts were dispelled.
A message suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Mission reminder: Apprehend Deng Hai for military discipline enforcement. Mission reward: 2 skill points."
In that split second, Wang Ye quickened his pace, transitioning into a run.
It was indeed him.
Deng Hai had truly arrived, bypassing Wu Jianfeng's entrance and heading directly here.
Of course, Wang Ye had no intention of shouting like the heroes on television. What a load of nonsense! It would be far simpler to seize the moment when Deng Hai wasn't vigilant.
That was precisely what Wang Ye intended to do.
However, a sprinting figure couldn't escape notice. Furthermore, despite Deng Hai's attention being largely focused on Jiang Ting, he wasn't completely oblivious. Just before Jiang Ting entered the building, she turned back once more.
